Things you didn't like about "Boy Meets World" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

- I got tired of the "woe is me/ I grew up poor and I'm meant for this bad boy, white trash life/No one loves me" episodes they gave Shawn every season. Only for him to hear the same damn speech from the good people around him and decide to do better. It became so repetitive.

-I hate that they never explained what happened to Mr Turner after the accident or brought his character back. He bonded well and was a positive influence on Shawn.

-I hate how the writers kept changing Corey and Topanga's history to try and further push the story of them having the perfect love. They completely blanked on how much Corey hated Topanga and thought she was a weirdo early in the series.

-How they ended things with Shawn and Angela. Especially because their relationship was written more like a real relationship compared to the predictable "fairy tail" couple of Cory and Topanga.

-How they dumbed Eric down so much as the seasons progressed. I get that he was supposed to be comedic relief but he could've been the funny character without being so dumbed down. In the earlier seasons he actually was like a suave, relatively smart guy.

-The way they jumped ages and grades. He went from the sixth grade to a sophomore in college in like 6 seasons

I kind of lost interest of the show maybe in it's 3rd season but when I would periodically look back on it I hate how it seemed that Mr. Feeny was always in Cory's life from grade school and into the college years, I know they were next door neighbors but man that was pushing it.

The age jump didn't set well with me either. The kids were in my grade when the show started, but when I went into the 7th grade, they went into the 9th.

God bless you always!!!
